Dorane was a Koan geneticist.
Biography[]
Background information[]
Not much is known about Dorane except for the fact that he was a member of the Koan, a race native to the Pegasus galaxy and whose people developed a civilization during the time of the Ancients. They remained in contact with the Ancients during the time the Wraith began rising with the Wraith eventually targeting and attacking the Koans.
Desperate, the Koans pleaded to the Ancients for help but received none. Due to his people lacking any technology, Dorane himself resorted to using bio-weaponry to drive off the Wraith which eventually drove the Wraith away but the bio-weaponry soon affected the Koans themselves with many dying while those who survived were mutated into a far more monstrous, inhuman form.
Dorane begged the Ancients yet again for help but they rejected him, forcing Dorane to personally take matters into his own hands.
Dorane and the Koans left their home planet, eventually settling on a planet inhabited by the Thesians who were building a great city in conjunction with the Ancient's Repository that had been left there. Dorane eventually claimed to be an Ancient from Atlantis who had arrived to help the Thesians construct their city but in reality, he was performing experiments on the Thesians in order to reverse the damage his people had suffered. The Ancients soon retaliated, destroying most of the lab and forcing Dorane to reverse the changes he'd inflicted to the Thesians before the Stargate itself was sabotaged which left Dorane and the Koans stranded.
Droane had his people go into stasis until a new opportunity presented itself.
The Koans soon willingly aided their master due to the use of Ancient technology that drove them crazy, allowing Droane to control them but some of the Koans escaped and recovered their intelligence.
Those who remained with Droane aided him when he sought to attack Atlantis but the attempt was foiled by Major John Sheppard who destroyed the control device and killed Dorane. (SGA: "Reliquary")
